Tiziana Dearing, host of WBUR’s Radio Boston, a weekday broadcast that features
provocative stories and authentic voices from Greater Boston, will sit in conversation
with Professor Harleen Singh, Director of the WSRC and Senior Associate Provost for
Faculty and Global Affairs at Brandeis.   Prior to joining the Radio Boston team, Tiziana
was a professor at Boston College’s School of Social Work where she taught social
innovation and leadership. A longtime anti-poverty advocate, she also led Boston
Rising, an antipoverty fund to end generational poverty in Boston, and was the first
woman president of Catholic Charities for the Archdiocese of Boston. She and
Professor Singh will touch upon women in the public sphere, women’s voices, and
women modulating the conversation.

Tiziana will speak and answer audience questions about her own career trajectory and
professional roles ranging from professor to nonprofit executive to radio host, including
her work as host of Phenomenal Women, a WBUR CitySpace series that invites women
who have risen to the top of their professions to share their stories.

Co-sponsored by the Metrowest Women’s Fund.
